On Wednesday, I went to the Westchester Mega Mixer. I wanted to go to network and reconnect w/ friends and colleagues.
As I went up to one of the booths of someone I recognized, someone else stopped me, and before I even introduced myself, she said, "Oh I need you. I need to set up an appointment with you to take care of some carpet for my daughter's room." I was pleasantly surprised, and of course we set something up for next week.
Her name sounded familiar, but I didn't know why. So, that night, I went to enter the lead into our database and I saw her name was already there. Apparently, she was a website lead, and my assistant had called her and left 3 messages for her over the last 3 weeks. That's why her name sounded familiar - I must have seen it on the lead list, even though I was not the one calling.
So she recognized me (and of course my purple "The Flooring Girl" shirt). It really made my day.
